Superiority of the Internal Jugular over the Subclavian Access for Temporary Dialysis
Abstract
We studied angiographically the access route 1-27 months after the insertion temporary dialysis catheters in 52 patients: 32 subclavian and 20 internal jugular. The two groups were statistically similar with respect to age, sex and race. The subclavian catheters were left in for a mean of 11.5 days (2-22) while the internal jugular ones were inserted for 15.8 days (5-25; p = 0.0015). One hundred percent of the internal jugular patients were free of any venogram abnormalities in their venous access return. In marked contrast, 50% of the subclavian sites had mild to severe stricutures with 90% having 70-100% occlusion of the subclavian vein. Six patients had bilateral severe strictures. The long-term stricture rate of subclavian catheters in the subclavian vein was unacceptably high compared to the internal jugular route.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
